Address of the Grand Orator

Grand Master Pervier presented Walter J. Klein, author of He Ain’tHeavy, He’s My Brother Zeb. Klein stepped in to replace Grand Orator SenatorMarc Basnight, who was unable to attend.

Heroes

Masonry is where you find heroes, past, present, future. Hundreds of greatworld leaders. All through history. George Washington. Your own coach whowalked you through your catechism. Heroes all.

Our son Richard is past master of Excelsior 261. After three girls, his wifepresented him with a son. He wanted to name him Vance in honor of the manin history he admired most.

Neither he nor I ever heard Zeb Vance was a Mason. Not until Jody Howardcalled me. The teenage son of an Asheville past master, Jody was writing a highschool thesis about three unusual Charlotte men: a Presbyterian minister, aJewish merchant, and a mountain lawyer. Jody had read my articles in hisfather’s Scottish Rite Journal. He saw me as a possible resource. After all, I wasa Mason, an historian, Jewish, Confederate, and an alumnus of UNC ChapelHill. Through his Dad and his inquisitive ways, Jody had discovered Zeb Vanceto have been a Mason. He shared his proof with me — smoking gun documentsfrom Mount Hermon 118 and articles from the Asheville Citizen about Vance’sburial with 120 Masons attending.

Jody was not yet a Mason but, like Zeb Vance, he was driven to become one.He and I associated for many pleasant months on his thesis and on an articlewe did for the Scottish Rite Journal. We were sixty years apart in age—stillare—but only inches apart in our passion for this wonderful subject. We’ve metonly once. He’s a seminary student in Suwanee, Tennessee, and I’m—I’m righthere to tell you some wild and wondrous things about Zeb Vance as a Mason.

Zeb was a genius who hid his brilliance behind jokes and plain speaking. Hemastered 500 classic books passed on to him from his uncle, a young doctorkilled in a duel. Zeb knew his Latin and named Excelsior Lodge when he organ-ized it in 1867. But, he didn’t care for anyone to know what a scholar he wasuntil he was in court. There, he slaughtered the opposition.

His profession was law. He borrowed tuition from UNC President DavidSwain, a leading Mason, and spent one sensational year at Chapel Hill for hiscomplete college law education.

His mother and father both came from eminent civic and Masonic families.Famed leaders visited his home when he was still a child. He stunned them withhis wit and wisdom. When he was 12 years old, he told a friend he knew in hisheart he would become governor of North Carolina. He did just that threetimes—and was then elected US Senator four times.

What about his Masonry? Well, get ready. When he was 23, he petitionedMount Hermon 118 in Asheville. Within five months, he was a Master Masonserving as junior deacon pro tem. Six months later he raised his brother BobVance and was representing his lodge before the Grand Lodge. By 1855 he affil-iated with York Rite Royal Arch Chapter 25. Lodge records show that for fouryears he was absent from meetings “only a few times.” In 1856 he was juniordeacon revising the bylaws. That same year he made a speech at the Republican

32 Proceedings of the Grand Lodge of North Carolina

Page 33: Proceedings - Grand Lodge of NC · Proceedings Of The Grand Lodge Of Ancient, Free and Accepted Masons Of North Carolina 2005

National convention in Salisbury that led US Senator George Badger to shoutthat Vance was the “greatest stump speaker there ever was!”

The year 1858 saw Zeb as senior deacon of Mount Hermon, the highestMasonic office he ever held. Meanwhile, his brother Bob was on his way tobecoming NC Grand Master of Masons.

Zeb remained active and committed to the fraternity as he rose to becomegovernor, Confederate colonel, and US senator. He was asked to representmajor and minor interests of various NC lodges in state and national governingbodies. He championed appropriations for Oxford Home and repayment of CivilWar damages to St. John’s Lodge 3 in New Bern.

Perhaps the climax of Zeb’s Masonic career came August 3, 1881, when hewas guest speaker at the unveiling of a monument to Governor Richard Caswellin Kinston. Zeb was there as a Mason to honor another Mason, and the wholeworld knew it. How many people came to little Kinston to see and hear him?Twelve thousand! That was an important portion of the state’s population in1881.

How did it happen that Zeb Vance’s Masonry was lost in time? For onething, not one of his many biographers was a Mason. All of them skipped overhis fraternal affiliation when they researched their books. In time, Vanceschools, Vance streets, and Vance buildings were torn down and replaced.

But, when he was living, Vance was magic. They say his portraits hung inevery home in North Carolina. When he attended lodge, crowds of Masonspacked the hall. When he stood to speak, he made history. When he was in courtin Charlotte, all businesses closed so the population could witness Zeb in action.Hundreds of watermelons were consumed in the Charlotte courthouse when Zebtried a case.

Here is a direct quote from “Tar Heels Track the Century” by PocahontasWight Edmunds that will illustrate Vance’s power when he spoke. “When theUS Senate was considering an appropriation for his own French Broad River,the stream of his boyhood, which rises near the South Carolina border andmeanders northward and westward, cleaving through high mountains on eitherside and bounding over boulders, Zeb became annoyed at Yankee criticism. Theobstacle to the dredging appropriation was a senator from Rhode Island, whomade the mistake of belittling the beautiful French Broad, the pride of everywestern North Carolinian. It was a small stream indeed alongside such naviga-ble rivers as the Hudson and the Delaware, but scarcely the trickle the NewEnglander claimed when he said he could stand on one bank and spit halfwayacross it. Vance in truth had not favored the appropriation, or others of the porkbarrel type. It had been introduced in the US House by his own brother Bob, acongressman representing the western North Carolina district. But, Zeb wasunwilling to have his beloved French Broad degraded by anyone and went to itsdefense. He rose half in drollery, but with a touch of irritation, to take advan-tage of the opening.

“The gentleman who makes that remark about the French Broad comesfrom the puny state of Rhode Island. Why I could stand on one border of RhodeIsland and pee halfway across the state.” The gavel raps loudly.

“Order! Order!” shouted the presiding officer. “The gentleman from NorthCarolina is out of order!”

Proceedings of the Grand Lodge of North Carolina 33

Page 34: Proceedings - Grand Lodge of NC · Proceedings Of The Grand Lodge Of Ancient, Free and Accepted Masons Of North Carolina 2005

“Yes,” Vance blandly continued, “and if I wasn’t out of order, I could peeclear across his whole damned state!” You may notice in my book that the wordZeb used was not precisely pee.

When I told that story several nights ago to about sixty brethren in lodge, Istarted rapping my trusty gavel and when I reached the third rap, everyonestood up!

OK, now let’s roll up our sleeves and look at Brother Zeb at his worst.An old definition says that a statesmen is simply a dead politician. Zeb was

surely the ultimate politician in his time; his advocates and detractors agreedon that. Zeb’s chosen profession was law. He loved law and respected it. But it’sno secret that it’s a struggle to make a living as a lawyer. It was true then asnow. Vance was never wealthy; never wanted to be. But holding public officeoffered him power and influence, and that suited him just fine.

He held his first public office in Asheville when he was only 20. He neverquit the political life. Opportunities to cash in were everywhere but Zeb wouldnot touch them. He was scrupulously honest, and everyone knew it.

Was he ambitious? For political office, absolutely. For high Masonic office?Never. For titles and praise in the church? Never. For improperly favoring hisfamily? Not for a moment. He loved to win, but never gambled. He would nottake a position against liquor, saying his conscience was dry but his stomachwet. Yet, there is not one story about him ever drinking to excess.

Was he unfaithful? Never. He adored his Hattie in a long and happy mar-riage with five sons. After her death, Zeb was devoted to his second wifeFlorence.

Did he dirty the linen of political parties? Hardly. In his time he wasRepublican, Democrat, Whig, you name it. He didn’t follow parties, they fol-lowed him. And speaking of leadership, he kept ahead of the people of NorthCarolina throughout his 64 years.

Did he like being the center of attention? Bet on that. At lodge meetings heliked to smile with the brethren when the words were said, “Advance and com-municate it.” He liked being introduced, mainly because that opened doors tofunny stories. Here’s an authentic favorite.

Some US senators, their wives and other ladies went on an outing inChesapeake Bay. They had to climb the ladder to board the vessel. Zeb hap-pened to glance up just as the lady ahead of him looked down and saw that hehad a view beneath her skirts.

“Senator,” she admonished, “I can see that you are no gentleman.”Zeb shot back, “I beg your pardon, madam, but I see that you aren’t, either.”Well, where are the black marks against Zebulon Baird Vance?Black, indeed.His relations with the black race were worse than his spelling. He was

determined to connect his beloved mountains by railroad and finally did it, butonly at the expense of many black men. He ordered prisoners by the hundredsto build that railroad. Hundreds died or lived in utter misery. His remarksabout black people in the state legislature were nothing short of disgusting. Hetold jokes about black people freely. It was known that he had been hand pickedas Jefferson Davis’ successor as president of the Confederate States of America.So you know where he stood on slavery. He shamelessly gerrymandered blacks

out of their voting power by creating a new county called Vance, which his crit-ics called his “black baby.”

And yet… and yet…Vance fought for and got a normal school for black teachers so North

Carolina blacks could have educational opportunities, even to insisting that thehead of that teachers college be black. He welcomed invitations to talk to blackaudiences and charged them with taking up leadership responsibilities andseeking ways to distinguish their race.

And when Zeb’s dead body was transported from Washington to Asheville,countless blacks assembled along the railroad tracks to sing spirituals and prayfor the soul of their dead friend. I guess the black people of the time thought ZebVance was not only the best thing they had going for them, but a decent humanbeing who was, underneath it all, their friend.

Did you know Zeb Vance was buried three times, and not one time withMasonic rites? His second wife refused to allow the Masonic team to perform therites they had rehearsed at Mount Hermon 118. Later she secretly had her hus-band exhumed and reburied in her Martin family plot nearby at RiversideCemetery. When Zeb’s sons found out, they took their stepmother to court, gota judgment, had their Dad dug up again and reburied him where he started out.I figure Zeb is still exploding with laughter at the thought that even in death hewas a traveling man.

In the new book, Brother Zeb, you will discover much more adventure andmany surprises, such as the several duels fought by famous North CarolinaMasons… what happened to Zeb’s five sons… the identity of Vance’s sevenheroes… the brother Mason who became Zeb’s enemy who died in disgrace...how Zeb’s mother and UNC President David Swain were once sweethearts…

After you have read it, you will surely understand the complete humanbeing named Zeb Vance. You will finally appreciate how he used his sense ofhumor to lead his people. You will see how he nobly championed North Carolinathrough its worst history—tremendous numbers of war dead and injured, pover-ty beyond belief, hopelessness, ruin. You will, in the end, ask yourself what kindof man would tell jokes to a divided America that had suffered almost 800 thou-sand war casualties. How could Zebulon Baird Vance make a career of leadinga poor agricultural state in the hardest of times and feed his hungry peoplefunny stories?

You will find the answer within the very people he served. They dearlyloved this man who could help them smile through their tears.

I must end now. But, the memory of Zeb Vance should not, must not end.The most popular and beloved man and Mason in North Carolina history mustnot be forgotten. Let us honor him by naming that new road Vance road, thisnew school Vance school, that new lodge Vance lodge. Put his portrait back onthe walls of public buildings. Ask teachers to challenge their students to writeZeb Vance biographies. Retell his great stories. Keep naming babies for him.We are literally obligated to keep this great Mason alive! After all, you and Iare his surviving brethren!

Report of the Committee on Permanent BuildingThe following Report of the Committee on Permanent Building was

received and entered on the record.To the Most Worshipful Grand Lodge of North Carolina:The cornerstone of the Grand Lodge office building was laid fifty years ago

on December 15, 1955. Subsequently, the building was occupied early in 1957.Over the years, maintenance issues have been addressed. Overall, the build-ing is in excellent condition.

The building HVAC equipment is original. For fifty years, this equipmenthas serviced the building adequately. It is now becoming a liability. In orderto provide for the building for the next fifty years, we have secured the servic-es of Bass, Kennedy and Nixon, consulting engineers. Brother Al Bass recent-ly walked through the building to review the present equipment. He reviewedour current problems with the system and suggested that we consider com-pletely replacing the system with five individual units. He suggested that weuse heat pumps to operate the building down to forty degrees outside temper-ature. He would continue to use gas-fired hot water for lower temperatures.He stated his firm would design the system, set the criteria for bids to contrac-tors, and supervise the installation. The committee is in agreement that it istime that we start this project.

Around 1974, the rear glass wall of our building was replaced with wall-board and stucco. The rear deck was removed. We have been reviewing earlyminutes of the Board of General Purposes from that period, but have found noindication of why this revision was undertaken.

The committee is considering the prospects of bringing the building backto its original design — a beauty that once had it listed on the top architectur-

al examples in the state’s capital city. From pictures, we see that before theback glass was removed, someone climbing the steps of Grand Lodge would begreeted by a panoramic view of our magnolia covered back property. We nowhave a dark, rather dank, windowless large lobby. Recent efforts to brightenthe room and bring our famous Allyn Cox murals back to life have improvedthe situation. An old shag carpet was removed to reveal the original tessellat-ed terrazzo floors of the room. That has been accentuated with oriental arearugs. Nothing, though, will bring back its original beauty but replacing theglass of the back wall.

We are hoping that we can replace the rear wall with energy efficientglass. This would enhance the efficiency of our building and preserve our his-toric legacy. In order to undertake this project, we are looking into variousfund raising projects to offset the cost.

While considering the back windows, we are also reviewing the energyefficient replacement the other glass in the building. This would be done as amulti-year project as money is made available. We feel that the project wouldgenerate energy savings as well as extend the life of the building.

treaty•Adherence to the Ancient Landmarks – specifically, a belief in God, the

Report of the AdministratorMasonic and Eastern Star Home of North Carolina, Inc.

The following Report of the Administrator Masonic and EasternStar Home of North Carolina was received and entered on the record.

Brethren of the Grand Lodge:This report is the first of my second decade with the Masonic and Eastern

Star Home [MESH]. So as not to repeat myself, I would refer the reader to thissame report for last year, which concentrated on the prior decade.

The MESH Vision for the DecadeTo Grow Our Way Out Of A Deficit

MESH has always cared for more people than it could afford. This is nota business failure; it is the mark of an excellent charity. Growth on a smallportfolio, foundation gifts, and annual giving from fraternal members havehistorically made up the difference. Some eras, such as the Great Depressionand the war years, were more difficult than others.

The days of “one room and a path” need to be a thing of the past. Ouradministrative assistant was sure, when checking after me, that the term“path” is a typo. What we mean to say is that people, rather than a path to thebathroom, need privacy in the modern era.

Following studies and research reported in last year’s report, the Board ofDirectors has taken a bold new step toward the future. The last segment of alofty vision may soon become reality. The studies and research are convincingthat we can replace the older buildings with new state-of-the-space buildings,to include private bathrooms and showers. The business model is similar tothe plan for our Independent Living Village Program, although with a financ-ing component.

In sum, MESH paid $900,000 to complete planning and the infrastructurefor a new village of 44 new two-bedroom houses. This village is valued at more

than $6.5 million. New revenues come to the table when future residents applyand are approved. This was done without a capital campaign. Because it isefficient to use vacant property as a revenue stream, we have actuallyimproved the services offered to those residents who require financial subsidy.

We believe MESH can increase the length of its cabletow and be preparedto serve those yet to come. It appears that MESH can finance the cost of theexpansion and pay both the debt service and principle over a 30-year periodthrough entrance and monthly maintenance fees.

Even if the cabletow cannot be expanded, at the very minimum, currentresidents will move from single rooms with shared bathing to studios, suites,and apartments with private baths. All residents will have central dining andactivity areas that are conducive to people who are living longer than everbefore in our history.

The paradigm shifts from, “Someday I may have to live in a place likethat” to “Someday, I want to live in a place like that.”

However, MESH can only operate within the length of its cabletow. Theaverage Mason in 2004 contributed $7.62. Brethren, it takes an average of $25to pay the bills. MESH needs the immediate intervention of the craft, ratherthan suspend admissions until the census can be served within limitedresources.

Fraternal gifts declined nearly 30 percent over the previous year, andMESH was forced to reduce its operating budget. This was accomplished by,again, withholding wage increases for all staff, reducing personnel, modifyingthe nurse/patient ratio, and increased certification of Medicaid beds.

In sum, MESH can only operate within the length of the cabletow givenus by the craft. Is $25 within the length of your cabletow?

The Grand Chapter, Order of the Eastern Star

It is with profound disbelief and sorrow that I must advise you of thedeath of Donna Morgan, grand secretary of the Grand Chapter of NorthCarolina, Order of the Eastern Star. While traveling home from Greenville,and after the close of the Grand Chapter, she perished in a traffic accident.

Sister Donna Morgan was a true friend, a dedicated member of the Order,and most committed to our Home as the primary charity of the Eastern Starin North Carolina. Donna was a most professional grand secretary, who, inthat capacity, made people happy with her infectious spirit and bubblydemeanor.

I have no idea why God has called Donna Home. At the same time, mybrothers, I know there is a master plan and that we are not wise enough tounderstand its complexities and intricacies. Yet, we know that God says thereis a time for all seasons.

The Masonic and Eastern Star Home has lost an advocate, a friend, anda sister. Our Home will not forget this special lady.

The Depth of Our Service

MESH is more than just a retirement community; it is, in large measure,a tangible part of our obligation. At year-end 2004, we were serving 264 resi-dents. These people are more than numbers, but a measurable part of our com-mitment to aid and assist our distressed brethren and their wives, mothers,

Summary

The Bible tells us that, “Where there is no vision the people perish.”In the last decade, the MESH Board of Directors has led MESH into a

vision that has been largely implemented. It has been quite an adventure; arough and rugged road beset with trials, hardships, joy, and accomplishments.

MESH needs the immediate intervention of our members during this dif-ficult time in American history. The Board of Directors does not want torestrict our charitable services; yet, we must protect the minimal reserves forour current residents who are subsidized.

Conclusion

It has been a pleasure traveling and attending area meetings with thechairman of the MESH Board of Directors, our Grand Master GrahamPervier.

Brother Pervier brought a simple message: Masonry is not as bad off assome might think. Look at the history of our craft, review its growth andchange, compare it with significant social and political events and demograph-ics, and one gets a more accurate picture.

Pervier has been a leader with realistic expectations. He, being a profes-sional manager, knows how to provide oversight while assuring himself thatthe work is being done properly. On Brother Pervier’s watch, there were manyprograms completed, improved, and modified. He capitalized on the work inprogress and held the ship on course toward the future.

I wish to thank our fraternal members. If I could paint a picture, it wouldbe of an old person’s face. Radiating through that face would be the bright andexcited eyes of a child. Those who know and love this retirement community,dedicated to relief, are the rare people who understand that we are all children

Page 52: Proceedings - Grand Lodge of NC · Proceedings Of The Grand Lodge Of Ancient, Free and Accepted Masons Of North Carolina 2005

of God, just some older than others.I wish to thank the employees and, particularly, the managers at MESH.

Every employee must not only excel in their profession, they must have thecapacity to love people, particularly the elderly. This is what separates MESHfrom many other congregate care institutions. I especially want to express myappreciation to Kay Ellison, our administrative assistant. Her tenacity, pro-fessionalism, patience, and a desire for MESH to be all it can and should behas been sincerely appreciated. She, too, has been an advocate and championfor residents of MESH.

Under the leadership of our management team, every employee is anadvocate and champion for the rights and lives of our residents. The paradigmfor the employees of this Home is, “I work in your Home. You do not live in myinstitution.”

Our managers are: Dianne Armstrong, assistant administrator; PeggyShoffner, director of Nursing; Rouena Newman, director of Dietary Services;Michael Midkiff and Chris Staley, director and assistant director ofEnvironmental Services; Bettie Lea V. Knight, director of Social and OutreachServices; Deborah Idol, director of Business Services; Tracy Armwood, humanresource and payroll coordinator; and Gina Weeks, director of activities.

Lastly, I would like to thank every resident at MESH. These are thebravest people in the world. Like the distance runner, we all slow down at theend of the race. Like the runner at the end of the race, our residents are stillgiving 100 percent — pursuing goals, having hope, looking for ways to con-tribute, and dreaming.

Fraternally and respectfully submitted,John A. Rose, Administrator/CEO

Report of the Board of Directors of theMasonic and Eastern Star Home of North Carolina, Inc.

The following Report of the Board of Directors of the Masonic andEastern Star Home was received and entered on the record.

To The Most Worshipful Grand Lodge of North Carolina:

Governance

During this Masonic year, the Board of Directors convened their regularquarterly meetings in February, May, and August and is scheduled to meet inNovember 2005.

The Board of Directors is comprised of 20 qualified members of whomtwelve are Masons and eight are members of the Order of the Eastern Star.The grand master serves as chairman. The deputy grand master and seniorgrand warden are members by virtue of their positions. The other Masonicmembers are nominated, or in the event of a vacancy, appointed by the grandmaster and elected by the voting members of Grand Lodge at the AnnualCommunication. The junior grand warden serves as an observer, which helpshim prepare for his ensuing term.

The Board of Directors receives regular reports from the administrator

Page 53: Proceedings - Grand Lodge of NC · Proceedings Of The Grand Lodge Of Ancient, Free and Accepted Masons Of North Carolina 2005

that relate to the general operations of the Masonic and Eastern Star Home[MESH].

The many important responsibilities of the Board are directed throughcommittees and, when necessary, ad hoc committees. Standing committees areinstrumental in maintaining efficient and effective operations of your MasonicHome. These committees include Admission, Personnel, Finance, Buildingsand Grounds, Real Estate, Long-Range Planning, and Investment.

At this time, there are three ad hoc committees working to the benefit ofMESH. The Construction Committee, chaired by Wayne Jackson, continuesits important work of directing and overseeing the current Independent Livingexpansion project. The Steering Committee is charged to review, identifyadvantages and disadvantages, regarding a conceptual organizational modelapproved at a special-called meeting in March of 2003. The third ad hoc com-mittee is studying ways to strengthen the governing board, selection of Boardmembers, modify the requirement that the grand master chair the meetings,empower an executive committee to meet monthly, modify the duties of theAdmission Committee, and include provisions for an Audit Committee.

The Transition Committee, chaired by PDGM William L. Mills III, com-pleted its charge. The Committee determined that it was time for MESH todiscontinue the original assigned asset admission system in favor of an admis-sion system requiring MESH to step up to the plate only when a resident orapplicant’s assets were insufficient. The committee presented such a systemthat was approved by the Board of Directors.

The Vision of MESH

Donations from North Carolina Masons declined in 2004. We attributethis to the combined effect of other worthy projects, a war on terrorism inAmerica, and a decline in the market economy. We continue to experience anoperating deficit.

With respect to the operating deficit, for want of a single annual gift of $25per North Carolina Mason, we would have none. This prompts MESH to con-ceive innovative ways to eliminate the operating deficit when a small giftwould solve the problem, not the least of which is to ask our members for theirsupport.

The Board understands that it is not so much an expense problem, as it isa revenue challenge. The Board of Directors wants to help those who will needour services in the future, as all indications are that the number of eligiblebeneficiaries will grow over the next decade.

The Board of Directors has taken a large step toward a business modelthat addresses the replacement of our older congregate accommodationsthrough continued amortization of costs without additional burden upon thecraft. You are referred to the Administrator’s Report for additional detailsabout the business model and financing plan for this expansion.

Outreach of MESH

In fiscal year 2004, the Board of Directors placed into motion an OutreachServices Program. There are a number of public and private charitable pro-grams and resources in North Carolina available to eligible persons in need.Within our fraternity, there is no one central information point for these fra-

Proceedings of the Grand Lodge of North Carolina 53

Page 54: Proceedings - Grand Lodge of NC · Proceedings Of The Grand Lodge Of Ancient, Free and Accepted Masons Of North Carolina 2005

ternal and other resources.Many of these private and public programs are entitlement or means-test-

ed programs that would involve little or no cost to the beneficiary or MESH.Understandably, the majority of those seeking relief through the Masonic

and Eastern Star Home are from areas located within a reasonable distance ofthe community they consider home. Predictably, financial support from subor-dinate lodges and chapters in North Carolina is less from those areas that areunderrepresented in the population being served at MESH. Although charityshould know no geographical boundaries, the fact that fewer persons fromremote areas seek relief through MESH, and the fact that charitable supportis generally less from those areas, gives the Board of Directors of MESH rea-son to consider ways to better serve our needy members in areas more remoteto Greensboro.

Relief is a shared responsibility of the family. Sometimes the family, andthe lodge or chapter to which the qualified member belongs, is unable to sat-isfactorily meet the needs of a qualified beneficiary. The practical mission ofMESH is to help lodges and chapters with a chronic relief burden that isbeyond their available resources. Yet, admission to the Masonic and EasternStar Home is not always the best answer. It may be in an applicant's bestinterests to not be required to live at MESH in order to receive services.Examples might be the proximity of family, the frailty of the applicant, finan-cial resources, or the marital situation.

In the case of proximity, a lodge or chapter that is more remote fromGreensboro might be more inclined to contribute when the Outreach ServicesProgram is serving people who live in that lodge’s or chapter’s geographicarea.

Within the Outreach Services Program would be a program designed toserve Masonic widows living in North Carolina. Masonic lodge widows pro-grams range from being effective to nonexistent. Too often, widows are woeful-ly uninformed about the Masonic and Eastern Star Home and their eligibilityfor assistance. As well, they are often uninformed about other private, local,county, state, and federal resources to which they may be eligible or entitled.

The State of North Carolina is rapidly growing as a retirement home forsenior citizens. Notwithstanding, the population as a whole, the number ofMasons and Eastern Star members over 65 years of age is growing rapidly andis expected to do so for several more decades. It is a fact that men, more oftenthat not, predecease their wives.

Regardless of their financial needs, Masonic widows often grieve the lossof their link to Masonry. Compounding this is the fact that often the addressof a Masonic widow is not included in a lodge publication. Likewise, there isreason to believe that an older Mason living remote from the Greensboro area,would be more inclined to support the Masonic and Eastern Star Home whenhe knows that MESH will, by default, be touching bases with his wife in theevent of his death.

In administering this program, it is important that the constituent lodgesin North Carolina understand that MESH is not interested in supplanting acurrent lodge responsibility. More so, MESH wishes to supplement and assistconstituent lodges with information and resources that may be beyond the

information or capability (cabletow) of a lodge. This program is in its infancyand will be further developed over the course of time.

Conclusion

Each resident served in your Masonic and Eastern Star Home representsmore than a name. Each contribution and dollar spent represents more thanmoney. Your Home is tangible evidence of the extent to which Masons accepttheir obligation. Charity is love, and your continued love is needed.

On behalf of your Board of Directors, “Thank you for your continued atten-tion to this, one of the purest forms of charity that can be found.” The Biblereminds us to plead the widow’s cause and to visit the fatherless in their afflic-tion. What better example can be found than our North Carolina MasonicCharities?

Report of the Grand Lodge Committee on the Masonicand Eastern Star Home of North Carolina, Inc.

The following Report of the Committee on the Masonic and EasternStar Home was received and entered on the record.

To the Most Worshipful Grand Lodge of North Carolina:The Grand Lodge Committee on the Masonic and Eastern Star Home

[MESH] met on the campus on Tuesday, July 26, 2005. We talked with theadministrator, John A. Rose, and, throughout the day, with a number of staff andresidents. Brother Rose, a past master and member of Stokesdale Lodge No. 428,presented a short program on MESH. We toured the campus for several hoursand also joined the residents for lunch. The committee wishes to report to theGrand Lodge the MESH highlights of the year.

Admission Policies: During Fiscal Year 2004, a Transition Committee,chaired by Past Deputy Grand Master William L. Mills III, completed its charge.The original assigned asset admission system was discontinued and replaced witha new admission system requiring MESH to step up to the plate only when a res-ident or applicant’s assets were insufficient.

Outreach Services: In Fiscal Year 2004, the Board of Directors placed intomotion an Outreach Services Program. There are a number of public and privatecharitable programs and resources in North Carolina available to eligible personsin need. This can be helpful to our fraternal members as, within our fraternity,there is no one central information point on resources for the elderly. Within theOutreach Services Program would be a program designed to assist lodges with thechronic relief burden of Masonic widows.

Financial Issues: While providing a service of huge social and health benefit,MESH is currently in a period of uncertain growth. While the need for the insti-tution is growing within the fraternity, the current financial contributions fromthe brethren are insufficient for proper stewardship of this important charity.Donations from North Carolina Masons declined in 2004. We learned that theaverage gift per Mason in North Carolina was $7.62 per member making up only12 percent of the budget. Deficits created by the lack of support are currentlydraining reserves, have not allowed for staff raises for two years, and have

56 Proceedings of the Grand Lodge of North Carolina

Page 57: Proceedings - Grand Lodge of NC · Proceedings Of The Grand Lodge Of Ancient, Free and Accepted Masons Of North Carolina 2005

required reduction of the number of residents through attrition. The latestfundraising effort (the Keep the Light Shining Bright campaign) was not effec-tive, partly due to lack of support from lodge officers relating information to themembership. A transition committee has been required to revamp the admissionspolicies from an assigned asset admission system to a less charitable fee-for-serv-ices system better enabled to support the large percentage of need-based resi-dents unsubsidized by the blue lodges.

The administrator attributes the decline in giving to the combined effect ofother worthy projects, a war on terrorism in America, and a decline in the mar-ket economy. The committee learned that MESH subsidizes 150 of 264 residentsand that our fraternal gifts are sufficient to support 90. Our residents are doingthe best they can to bring revenue to the table. Through resident fees, assign-ments, and entitlements, nearly 80 percent of the revenue comes from the resi-dents.

The administrator would like to see a single annual gift of $25 per NorthCarolina Mason, thereby eliminating the current operating deficit. This factprompts MESH to consider other ways to increase revenue to support the sixtyresidents whose support must come from MESH’s small savings account. Thisincludes means-tested entitlement programs and expanding the fee-for-serviceprogram. In the interim, it has been necessary to employ the Outreach Programfor those on the waiting list rather than admit additional residents who requiresubsidy.

Condition of the Facility Physical Plant: Recent efforts to renovate and revi-talize the physical plant have been largely successful, and appropriate mainte-nance has allowed for continued use of several buildings that should have longsince been demolished and replaced. A carefully considered program of renovationand replacement of existing structures on the campus has been developed to allowfor the continued growth and financial stability of MESH over the next 30 years.Although there is currently no tenant in the older health center (previously occu-pied by the Blumenthal Nursing Home), other income streams are being identi-fied that might help turn physical liabilities back into assets for the short-termuntil demolition and replacement.

The Committee learned that the Board of Directors has taken a significantaction toward an operating philosophy that, in the ideal, will help us to replaceour older accommodations. We refer you to the Administrator’s Annual Report foradditional details of this action. The sum and substance of the plan is to “grow ourway out of a deficit.”

Demand in the Future: The Committee heard Brother Rose’s sobering reportthat the number of fraternally eligible members over 65 years of age is growingrapidly and is expected to do so for several more decades. We must be preparedto serve this cohort yet to come.

Service provision transitioning: For more than forty years, gerontologistshave advocated a best-practice model of “aging in place.” This model seeks tomaintain the personal autonomy and dignity of individual elders through assis-tance in keeping their own homes instead of moving into a retirement facility.MESH has begun exploring ways of assisting with this issue in developing an out-reach program. Outreach is an essential aspect of our charity, especially inremote areas of the state. Several models exist that demonstrate the efficacy of

Proceedings of the Grand Lodge of North Carolina 57

Page 58: Proceedings - Grand Lodge of NC · Proceedings Of The Grand Lodge Of Ancient, Free and Accepted Masons Of North Carolina 2005

such programs, especially in serving as a clearinghouse of public and privateassistance, and in database management of needs and resources. Specifically,information can be disseminated concerning utilities relief, medical care assis-tance (mostly from county Departments of Public Health), and food provision(e.g., Meals on Wheels). Some lodges in North Carolina are not well equipped forrecords maintenance of their needy brethren and widows, and thus MESH mightbe able to support the individual acts of charity of lodges which might otherwisebe deficient in these aspects. Given the unique resources of the population resi-dent at MESH, this might also be a fabulous opportunity for service to those res-idents who are not; otherwise able to contribute by answering phones or helpingwith mailings, thus decreasing the cost of the outreach programs and need for fur-ther paid employees.

Loss of a Friend: The committee learned about the untimely traffic accidentrelated death of Donna Morgan, grand secretary of the Grand Chapter of NorthCarolina, Order of the Eastern Star. This death was a shock to many residentsand staff at MESH who knew her as a friend, a dedicated member of the Orderwho most committed to our Home.

The Value of MESH Employees: Brother Rose also acknowledged the valueand importance of the managers at MESH who report to him and the otheremployees of MESH. Every employee is to be an advocate and champion for therights and lives of our residents. The paradigm for the employees of MESH isintriguing: “I work in your Home. You do not live in my institution.” The old, “Iknow what’s good for you” perspective is replaced with, “You know what’s good foryou. Tell me and I’ll do the best I can within the cabletow I have been given.”

Summary: One of the key needs for both MESH and the Masonic Home forChildren at Oxford (MHCO) is a program of responsible, accountable “ambas-sadors” from the charities to the lodges to facilitate coordination of fundraising,visitation, and service provision. Too often during business meetings, lodges willhave no report, nor anyone to give a report, on MESH or the MHCO. As monthspass by, little is thought of on the individual or district level of these charities,with the exception of major fundraisers. Since the overall giving and percentagegiving have both dropped significantly, we can hardly state that contributions aregoing well from blue lodges. It is recommended that district ambassadors (DAs)be appointed within each Masonic district to coordinate the raising of the aware-ness of the charities and their vibrant services supplied to Masonry and the state.Training, and possibly even special aprons could be provided by MESH andMHCO to these DAs. The DAs could provide talks to lodges, thereby decreasingexpenditures from the charities in sending their employees to lodges, while alsoacting as conduits for dissemination of information about the charities, and con-tributing to the outreach missions of the charities by forming linkages betweenresources and those in need.

Respectfully Submitted,William L. Dill, Chairman

Report of the Administrator ofThe Masonic Home for Children at Oxford

The following Report of the Administrator of the Masonic Home forChildren at Oxford was received and entered on the record.

To the Most Worshipful Grand Lodge of North Carolina:

2005: The Year in Review

This past year has been a busy and successful year for the children at theMasonic Home for Children at Oxford. Throughout the year the censusremained at nearly 80 children, and, over the course of the year, we servedmore than 130 children and families through the support of the NorthCarolina Masons and other friends and supporters. This amounted to morethan 31,000 days of care. This compares about equally to the previous year'scensus but with a reduction in child caring expenditures of over $530,000 anda reduction of over one million dollars over the past two years.

One of the major accomplishments of the past year was to revisit ourMission Statement. Working together, the Board and staff restated our mis-sion as the following: The Mission of The Masonic Home for Children at Oxfordis to assist families in need by providing a safe homelike setting for children untilthey can be reunited with their families or achieve independence. We fulfill thismission through:

• Quality residential child care services to include institutional fostercare,

• Parent education and counseling,• Social skill development for children and families,• Spiritual development for children and families,• Academic development and achievement for children,• Assistance for the advancement of higher education for client children

and former child clients of the residential program to include bothacademic and vocational schooling,

• Community education and child and family advocacy,• Family reintegration and assistance with permanency planning,• Promotion of independent living education for youth, and• After-care and follow-up services.This Mission Statement aligns our stated purpose with what the Home has

been working toward for many years and more accurately defines what we do ona day-to-day basis.

This year our Children’s Home has completed a full year of operations underits new procedures and new program of care that allows us to give those familiesand referral agencies seeking to place a child or children an answer to their place-ment questions on the same day that they make an application. This is a signifi-cant change from only a year-and-a-half ago when placement was taking severalweeks, and at times, several months to get a child into care. Staff members assistthe people making a referral at every step of the way, easing the process andrelieving the trauma of placement at every opportunity. Children at the Homecome from all across the state and are referred to us by Masons, parents, grand-parents, churches, schools, and Departments of Social Services. Some have histo-ries of abuse and neglect, some have school problems or learning difficulties, and

Proceedings of the Grand Lodge of North Carolina 59

Page 60: Proceedings - Grand Lodge of NC · Proceedings Of The Grand Lodge Of Ancient, Free and Accepted Masons Of North Carolina 2005

some just need a place to live while their families get back on their feet. All ofthem need to be loved and cared for in a compassionate and caring manner bystaff dedicated to the Home’s mission.

There is still room for more children, also. Although all our newer Homes andthree of our older Homes have remained at or near capacity over the past year westill have the capacity to take in more children. A call remains out to Masonsacross the state who may know of a family in need to contact us here in Oxford sothat we may be of assistance.

Some things, however, do not change. For example, the children still havejobs that they go to after school and in the summer where they get experience inthe world of work and develop good work skills and a good work ethic. The chil-dren still have grades to maintain in their schoolwork, and some have to attendtutoring and remedial studies in the afternoons and evenings. Children stillattend church and Bible study at the York Rite Chapel on campus and areinvolved in Vacation Bible School and other special religious events at Easter,Christmas, baccalaureate service, Thanksgiving and other times. And, childrenstill spend a lot of time at old-fashioned play. They are involved in soccer, basket-ball, baseball, softball, karate, gymnastics, tumbling, swimming, and just havingfun. Some of these activities are offered through the Granville County Schoolsand many are offered right on the campus of the Home. Our own gymnasium is ahub of activity seven-days-a-week where children and adults play individual andteam sports, play pool, take classes, or watch television with their friends.

During the summer the children went on weekly trips sponsored by Masoniclodges across the state including trips to the Zoo in Asheboro, a trip to the beachin Wilmington, the annual Mocksville Picnic, a water park in Greensboro, “Takea Kid Fishing” trip in Morehead City, and to Kerr Lake for fishing, boating, andjust plain fun.

The children did well in school this past year with four students graduatingfrom high school, one from community college and one from the University ofNorth Carolina at Wilmington. The overall grade point average for our childrenwas 82.17 percent and all but four passed their grade for the year. Of those four,three came into our program too far behind to catch up with the rest of their class.Additionally, 27 percent of our children made the Dean’s List at least one of thequarters during the year. Our on-campus school served 25 students either as atransitional setting giving new enrollees a fresh start or for an alternative forthose children having behavior difficulties in the regular classroom setting.

The staff providing the care for our children are the key to a successful oper-ation. Just as in any organization, a program is only as good as the staff who oper-ate it. Over the past two years we have made a concentrated effort to improve thequality of the child care workers at the Home and are making great strides at thisgoal. At the time of this writing, our staff averages over two years college and overthree years residential child care experience. A full 100 percent have high schooldiplomas, 21 percent hold an associate's degree, 17 percent hold undergraduatedegrees, and 17 percent hold graduate degrees. The Home’s 26 child care workerspossess over 40 years experience in working with children and 70 percent haveworked in other residential child care facilities before coming to the MasonicHome for Children at Oxford. Combined they average more than two years expe-rience here at our Home. Over the year they completed 111 hours of training insuch areas as child abuse prevention, grief and loss with children in care, resident

60 Proceedings of the Grand Lodge of North Carolina

Page 61: Proceedings - Grand Lodge of NC · Proceedings Of The Grand Lodge Of Ancient, Free and Accepted Masons Of North Carolina 2005

rights, reporting abuse, cultural diversity, defensive driving, CPR/first aid, disci-pline techniques, and privacy and confidentiality. All the direct care staff attend-ed training to become certified as professional child care workers. All of this train-ing and certification is aimed at producing the very best in professional care forthe children in our care and their families. The role of child care worker is a dif-ficult one, and turnover is always high. We continue to need good workers if wewant to remain among the very best children's homes in the state and nation.

Over the past year many capital improvements have been made on campus.The old “baby cottage,” or Dunn Cottage, has been completely renovated througha generous gift from an alumnus, Bill Cobb. The newly renovated facility willhouse the archives and provide meeting rooms and offices for the campus and itsprograms. There will also be a complete professional library for direct care work-ers and a research library for alumni. Additionally, the roads have been repairedand repaved and re-curbed. The gymnasium has had new windows installed, anda new roof put on it, and is in the process of being upgraded. A new playgroundand pavilion have been installed that meets federal and state safety requirementsand is being enjoyed by the children.

Our Home is fully licensed by the State of North Carolina and is well on itsway to achieving national accreditation through the Council on Accreditation ofServices to Children and Families. These two bodies set the standards for bestpractices and go a long way toward ensuring that our Home offers only the bestcare possible. Additionally, the Home is affiliated with the Child Welfare Leagueof America, the Alliance for Children and Families, Southeastern Group ChildCare Association, Masonic Homes Executives Associations of North America,Children and Family Services Association of North Carolina, Prevent ChildAbuse of North Carolina, the NC Center for Nonprofits, and the Association ofChild and Youth Care Practice. These associations and affiliations help us to fur-ther our efforts to raise our level of professionalism and offer the best quality pos-sible to the children and families with whom we work.

We are certainly most grateful for all of the financial support we receive fromour lodges and individual Masons. Professional child care workers, devoted sup-port staff, excellent programs, and first-class facilities are all indicators of thecontinuing support of Masons across the state who give of their time and moneyto keep the Masonic Home for Children at Oxford among the best children'shomes in the nation. It is this generous charity and care for those less fortunatein our society that is the mark of Masons everywhere and certainly that is truehere in North Carolina.

Report of the Committee onThe Masonic Home for Children at Oxford

The following Report of the Committee on the Masonic Home forChildren at Oxford was received and entered on the record.

To the Most Worshipful Grand Lodge of North Carolina:The Grand Lodge Committee on the Masonic Home for Children met on

Proceedings of the Grand Lodge of North Carolina 61

Page 62: Proceedings - Grand Lodge of NC · Proceedings Of The Grand Lodge Of Ancient, Free and Accepted Masons Of North Carolina 2005

Saturday, July 23, 2005. We spent several hours with Doug McConnell,administrator. He gave us a candid overview of the changes that are beingmade at Oxford. After the meeting, we were conducted on an extensive tour ofthe campus.

Findings: The Home is serving 74 children as of this writing, and they arein receipt of several applications for service. The children come from all acrossthe state of North Carolina and a couple from across the state line in Virginiaand two from Maryland who were referred by a North Carolina lodge andsponsored by that lodge. Referrals come from Masons, individuals related toMasons, parents and grandparents, and departments of social services. Thereare 15 children from the departments of social services and eight of them werein care before they became wards of the state.

The Committee found that the morale of both the children and staff washigh and that children were involved in many normal childhood activities atschool, at home, and in the community. Older children have jobs and work expe-riences both on and off campus. Some children were involved in after-schooltutoring. Others play on varsity and junior varsity athletic teams at their com-munity school or are active with intramural team sports on the campus.

Children attend church services at the York Rite Chapel on campus andparticipate in Bible study and other normal church-related events and activi-ties. Throughout the spring and summer months, a Bible study group met out-doors at the campus Thousand Dollar Spring and had old fashioned gospelsinging and a bonfire. The children also participated in choir and other specialreligious events on Easter, Christmas, baccalaureate, and Thanksgiving.Several community churches hold special worship services with our childrenand present different programs throughout the year that are widely enjoyedby children, staff and friends of the Home.

This was the second year of Masonic-sponsored summer trips across thestate that allows Masonic Lodges the opportunity to visit with the children intheir own communities. Lodges in Asheboro sponsored a trip to North CarolinaZoo and provided lunch and dinner for the children and staff. Lodges in theWilmington area sponsored a beach trip and meals for the campus and spentthe day with us at Carolina Beach. Lodges in the Greensboro area provided atrip to the water park for the children and fed them at the end of the day.Other lodges across the state had children in their communities for camping,fishing, a community fair and other activities. These trips provide lodges anexcellent way to be involved with our children and to enjoy a day of fun andrelaxation in their own communities.

Saint John’s Day celebrations were held again this year and were verysuccessful. An estimated 15,000 people attend the event this year, however,and the costs of the event to the Home have been greatly lowered over the pastseveral years. The Home still needs volunteers to assist in such things asparking, preparations, and cleanup after the guests leave.

The Home has been involved in a major renovation and repair effort overthe past year. New roofs, new windows, and a heating and air conditioningsystem have been installed at the Creasy Proctor Gymnasium. New curbinghas been installed on the roads and new pavement laid on most of the campusstreets. Dunn Cottage, also known as the baby cottage, has been completelyrenovated and turned into a new facility for the Sally Mae Ligon Archives and

62 Proceedings of the Grand Lodge of North Carolina

Page 63: Proceedings - Grand Lodge of NC · Proceedings Of The Grand Lodge Of Ancient, Free and Accepted Masons Of North Carolina 2005

a conference center; completely paid for by a charitable alumnus, WilliamCobb. The Committee toured the buildings and grounds and found them to bein excellent condition, beautiful, and well maintained.

The Board of Directors has recently approved a major renovation effort toupgrade some of the existing older cottages to accommodate overnight guestsincluding visiting Masons, donors, off-duty staff, and others related to theHome. These units will also provide living arrangements for older adolescentsleaving residential care and those struggling to make it on their own in a newindependent living program. This new program will focus on continuing for-mal and vocational education and in preparing youth to live interdependentlyas adults. One of the renovated units will also house the newly formedOrphans Lodge which is scheduled to receive its charter at this year’s AnnualCommunication.

The administration has put a concentrated effort into the training of thestaff that works directly with the children. Most of the homes where the chil-dren live are overseen by a married couple, most middle-aged, and experiencedin residential child care. The couples work 20-and-a-half days on duty, fol-lowed by nine-and-a-half days off duty. On the days they change over, they arerequired to attend training and staff meetings as a group. One of the concen-trations this past year has been on getting all the direct care staff nationallycertified in their field and increasing their level of professionalism. Othertraining included classes in CPR and first aid, identifying and reportingabuse, blood borne pathogens, confidentiality and privacy, proper discipline,cultural diversity, preparing youth for independence, and working withgroups. Staff attended off-campus workshops and seminars, and some attend-ed formal college programs related to their profession.

The Home has also been engaged in preparation for national accreditationthrough the Council on Accreditation of Services to Children and Families(COA). At the time of this writing the administration was awaiting the resultsof this effort and was making plans to complete any corrections or shortcom-ings that the Review Team might find. The accreditation process examinedsuch things as risk management and safety, procedures and policies, care andtreatment of children, the Home's efforts at continuing to make improve-ments, buildings and grounds, the way the organization treats its staff, legalaspects of their program, educational efforts for children and staff, salariesand benefits for staff, insurance coverage, financial soundness of the organiza-tion, and the overall state of the Home. Achieving national accreditation fromthis organization is further evidence that our Home is operating as a children'shome should operate and is a testament that it meets the highest nationalstandards in residential child care.

There is still a great need for financial support from our lodges and fromMasons. According to results from the 2004 annual audit, Masonic donationsaccounted for 11.44 percent of the donations. This amount is far below what isneeded to continue to operate our Home. Planned giving accounted for thelargest segment of the giving and most of that was from non-Masons.Investment earnings, corporate gifts and grants, and third-party trustsaccounted for most of the remainder of the revenue brought into the Home.The average gift from Masons was just under $17 per Mason. For the Home tocontinue to operate efficiently it would need $50 per Mason. Two memorial

Page 64: Proceedings - Grand Lodge of NC · Proceedings Of The Grand Lodge Of Ancient, Free and Accepted Masons Of North Carolina 2005

gifts of $25 each year would make this amount. In one district, the average giftwas under two dollars!

The School of Graphic Arts, the print shop, is operating in the black for thefirst time in many years. Good management and quality workmanship from theemployees in the print shop has resulted in more print jobs and better produc-tion in graphic arts. The shop still needs to have the support of our lodges andour Brother Masons with their printing and graphic arts design needs.

We found the Masonic Home for Children at Oxford to be in very good con-dition including buildings, grounds, finances, staff, and most of all, children.Our Home continues to be one of the best children's homes in the state and inthe nation and, thanks to Masons throughout North Carolina, it is still a greatplace to be a kid.

The Committee would like to challenge every member of the craft to comeand see what they are doing at Oxford. As society has changed over the last 132years, so has the Masonic Home for Children, but the mission remains strong— to help children in need. The Home in Oxford is changing very quickly tomeet new challenges and to find new ways to serve the most at risk children ofNorth Carolina. No institution was ever founded on a more solid foundation.The mission to help children has and always will be a part of the NorthCarolina Masonry, and Oxford is leading the way. Brethren, you can be proudof the Home in Oxford and know that your efforts are truly helping children.The Grand Lodge Committee for the Masonic Home for Children would askthat every Masonic brother in North Carolina help do God’s work at Oxford bysupporting it financially and with their prayers.

Report of the Representative to the George WashingtonMasonic National Memorial Association

The following Report of the Representative to the GeorgeWashington Masonic National Memorial Association was received andentered on the record.

To the Most Worshipful Grand Lodge of North Carolina:The 2005 Conference of Grand Masters of Masons in North America was

held in Calgary Alberta, Canada, February 20–22, 2005. The 95th annualmeeting of the George Washington Masonic National Memorial Associationwas held in conjunction with the conference on February 22 with PresidentScott Stoner, PGM Pennsylvania, presiding.

In addition to the annual business meeting of the Memorial, at which timethe reports were given, one of the breakout sessions of the Conference was onthe George Washington Memorial.

The present endowment of the Memorial is just over $11 million. The goalof the Association is $20 million, which would produce approximately $1 mil-lion in income each year. The annual expenses of the Memorial are $1.1 mil-lion. The memorial receives $325,000 from the grand lodges annually and$135,000 in rent from public use and fundraising projects.

One of the goals of the Association is for every grand lodge to contributeon a per member basis. If every grand lodge would contribute 50 cents permember, it would generate $875,000 that along with current initiations of$125,000, would total $1 million.

If every grand lodge would adopt a per capita contribution and keep thefive dollars per initiation fee in place, the Memorial could soon be fullyendowed. Grand lodge contributions are currently made in several ways,among them are per initiate, from the general budget, from their charity foun-dation, per member, and per member and per initiate combined.

In my last report, I listed several programs in effect to honor individualswith memorials. These programs are still in effect. Since my last report PGMCharles A. Lewis and his wife Helga have honored her parents (Frank A. andCharlotte Gunkel) by making them Twenty-First Century members of theAssociation, and Lee Long of Candler has become a Silver Craftsman member.

The George Washington Masonic National Memorial, which honors thefirst president, is visited, on average, almost 2,000 times a month. It is ourmost visible Masonic structure and must be preserved.

I make the following recommendations that:1. The Grand Lodge of North Carolina continue its membership in the

George Washington Masonic National Memorial Foundation.2. The Grand Lodge encourage contributions and visits to the Memorial

through The North Carolina Mason and its web site.3. The Grand Lodge initiate an annual per member contribution in addition

66 Proceedings of the Grand Lodge of North Carolina

Page 67: Proceedings - Grand Lodge of NC · Proceedings Of The Grand Lodge Of Ancient, Free and Accepted Masons Of North Carolina 2005

to its five dollars per initiate. I recommend a five cents per member con-tribution the first year, and an increase as funds are available in thefuture.

Report of the Representative to theMasonic Service Association of North America

The following Report of the Representative to the Masonic ServiceAssociation of North America was received and entered on the record.

To The Most Worshipful Grand Lodge of North Carolina:The annual meeting of the Masonic Service Association of North America

was held on February 20, 2005. The meeting was held in conjunction with theConference of Grand Masters of North America at the Hyatt Regency,Calgary, Alberta, Canada and was attended by your MSA Representative.

Reports were presented and approved on the various Masonic ServiceAssociation programs including Education and Publications, Disaster Relief,The Masonic Information Center, and the Hospital Visitation Program.

The MSA Hospital Visitation Program continues to be a visible expressionof Freemasonry’s commitment of service to mankind. In North Carolina thereare Masonic representatives at each of the four Veterans AdministrationMedical Centers, giving many hours of volunteer time visiting and servinghospitalized veterans. Their dedication to this charitable endeavor makesthem worthy of mention in this report. They are Inza Lance at Asheville, CecilLee at Durham, John Lynch at Fayetteville, and William McComb atSalisbury. Along with their assistants, these individuals are rendering a trulyunselfish service in the name of Freemasonry.

Appeals for disaster relief were made by the Masonic Service Associationduring 2004 for a number of grand lodges experiencing the devastation of hur-ricanes, tornadoes, and other disasters. It was reported that the Grand Lodgeof Florida had received $154,000 for help in recovery from four devastatinghurricanes during 2004.

The Masonic Information Center is a branch of the MSA and continues todevelop both audio and print products that present Masonry in a positivelight. A Masonic Public Awareness Program is currently being developed fordistribution to grand lodges.

It is recommended that the Grand Lodge of North Carolina continue itsmembership in the Masonic Service Association and its participation in theMSA Hospital Visitation Program at the VA Medical Centers in NorthCarolina.

The Board of Publication of The North Carolina MasonThe following Report of the Board of Publication of The North

Carolina Mason was received and entered on the record.To the Most Worshipful Grand Lodge of North Carolina:Your North Carolina Mason is, and continues to be, one of the outstand-

ing Masonic papers in the country, reaching over 50,000 Masons in NorthCarolina and many Masons in other jurisdictions. It has always been the goalof our editor, Ric Carter, and the Board of Publications, to present the viewsof our members in an unbiased manner, whether they be the popular or minor-ity viewpoint. We are grateful to contributing members for their enthusiasm,interest, and cooperation in the submission of pictures and articles on lodgeactivities for printing which helps make our paper the high quality publicationthat you, as members, deserve. However, this section of the paper, ever sointeresting to the craft, can improve if a little extra time is taken to insure thatthe camera is in proper focus. Brethren, keep up the good work, your picturequality seems to be improving.

Have you noticed that your North Carolina Mason does not have anaddress label and is now bar coded; that the name and address are printeddirectly on the paper; and that there are tabs to hold the paper together? Barcoding the paper has proved to be very beneficial to us from a cost stand pointto improved delivery. The Post Office has to do minimum handling; the size ofThe North Carolina Mason is the maximum size of a first-class letter; it isaddressed like a letter; and it can thereby be sorted with first-class mail fordelivery. This makes for a more timely delivery to the brethren.

It is a continuing concern of your Board of Publications to exercise goodstewardship in keeping costs down without sacrificing information flow orquality. The content of The North Carolina Mason has improved again thisyear, and each brother is receiving his paper in a timely manner and at thelowest Postal rate. Bar coding and tabbing started with the mailing inDecember 2000, and it has taken until this year too realize its full potential.This has resulted in a savings on postage through the years. We will under-spend our Postal budget by $1,000 for the 2005 year. Bar coding has now beenfully implemented to its maximum savings, and there is a proposed 5.4 per-cent across the board increase in postage scheduled for the first quarter of2006. We are forced to increase the proposed Postal budget by $1,100. This isthe first increase on this budget item in more than seven years.

The North Carolina Mason has been reformatted to make it more read-able and use a little less ink. It also received two national awards: 1). SecondPlace in Editing for the Overall Publication; and 2). First Place in Editorials.Thank you, Ric Carter, a job well done.

We wish to thank our Grand Lodge officers for their help and support. TheGraphic Arts and Printing Department of the Masonic Home for Children inOxford deserves special recognition for their outstanding service.

Do you need to read an article in The North Carolina Mason, but yourcopy has been misplaced? The web site http//www.grandlodge-nc.org will havea copy on file that you can access through the Internet. The Board ofPublication budget supports the web site - an electronic publication.

We hope that you get as much joy out of The North Carolina Mason as we

68 Proceedings of the Grand Lodge of North Carolina

Page 69: Proceedings - Grand Lodge of NC · Proceedings Of The Grand Lodge Of Ancient, Free and Accepted Masons Of North Carolina 2005

do in keeping the means working so that you can be kept well informed. Wehave had a great year! Everything is working as it should, and more efficient-ly, and with only a two percent budget increase for 2006. Enjoy your paper!

Report of the Grand Lodge Committee onMasonic Education

The following Report of the Committee on Committee on MasonicEducation was received and entered on the record.

To the Most Worshipful Grand Lodge of North Carolina:Thus far in 2005, the North Carolina Grand Lodge Committee on Masonic

Education has met three times: at the Grand Lodge offices in Raleigh onMarch 17, at MESH in Greensboro on May 20, and at the AnnualCommunication in Durham on September 22, with all members present at oneor more of the meetings. All of our committee members, extending fromCullowhee to Manteo, have email, and therefore we were able to communicatequite effectively. The committee has been active assessing the educational anddevelopmental needs of the North Carolina Grand Lodge in reference to bothits subordinate Lodge officers and general membership. Moreover, the popularLodge Night booklets will continue to be produced by the immediate PastChairman Dan Weatherington.

The committee reviewed the North Carolina Masonic Survey. Authorizedby the Grand Lodge in 2003, this baseline survey was conducted by membersof the Department of Political Science at UNC-Wilmington. Twenty-two hun-dred questionnaires were mailed to Masons throughout North Carolina, towhich 454 responded. The information collected included demographic infor-mation of our membership, the state of Masonry within the Grand Lodge, andreaction to possible changes in a number of areas. A report, and accompany-ing analysis, was supplied to the Grand Lodge in May 2004. It was commis-sioned as a database for the fraternity’s internal use – a snapshot of the Craftat a certain point in time – especially by its various committees. While it is animportant tool in learning about our membership, the Education Committee isbut one of many that will draw from this document.

Recognizing the validity and concern inherent in Grand Master Pervier’semphasis on retaining new members, the committee has focused on the goal ofkeeping those newly raised, as well as long-standing members of the fraterni-ty, involved. The key, we believe, is education, not just of candidates, but theirfamilies, the community, and even the teachers themselves. If our youngestBrothers have this firm basis, they will be more likely to continue theirMasonic journey, becoming productive members of the Craft.

The Committee believes orientation is vital for the future, and serves anumber of functions. It informs the candidate and family about the fraternity,its expectations, and some of its practices. It also establishes an importantbond between the candidate and the lodge. Such an undertaking may help toavert problems within the candidate’s family, or even misunderstanding bythe candidate himself. If the only orientation a candidate receives is a perfunc-

Proceedings of the Grand Lodge of North Carolina 69

tory investigating committee visit, then both sides have lost out on a wonder-ful opportunity for conversation and the exchange of ideas and expectations.Closely related is mentoring. Coaching/mentoring is more that just the trans-mission of the catechism; it is the inculcation of ideals, history, ritual, andunderstanding. Consequently, Masonry in North Carolina must have thestrongest instructors possible. At the same time, there should be some level ofconsistency throughout the Grand Lodge, since it can be interpreted different-ly. It is felt that this need for definition and the establishment of guidelinesand core knowledge would make these subjects excellent inclusions to anymaterials produced by the Committee. Emphasis should be placed not justupon ritual proficiency, but also the history, landmarks, and other importantaspects of the Craft. This would greatly assist in the previously stated goals ofcreating strong mentors, coaches, and especially officers, who have a firmgrasp of the intricacies of our fraternity, and thus be better enabled to supportnew brothers.

Fortunately, the Grand Lodge has programs developed to achieve thisgoal, namely, the Program for Progress and the Lodge System for MasonicEducation. In other words, the committee sees no need to reinvent the wheel.The committee has spent considerable effort examining these educational sys-tems. The Program for Progress was developed in 1998 in response to the needfor a replacement of the much older Lodge System for Masonic Education. Thelatter was originally published in 1936, and revised through 1969, when pub-lication ceased. This pamphlet has been digitally scanned and is availablethrough the Grand Lodge website: www.grandLodge-nc.org-education-LSMCv2.pdf. Both are excellent educational tools which need to be utilized byour lodges.

Another aspect of fraternal education undertaken by the committee cen-ters on the Officers’ Handbook compiled by Dudley Sheppard for use in hishome lodge, Gate City 694 in Greensboro. In their present incarnation, thebooklets contain checklists, calendars, officer information, Code regulations,and other items that can assist each officer to better perform their duties.Each is designed specifically for its position, albeit much of the informationcarries throughout. After review and discussion, the committee felt that thiswas a project worth pursuing on a state level. Although the process of editingand approval is underway, it is understood that these handbooks will be con-tinually reviewed, revised, and updated to continue to serve as an instructiontool for officers and the Craft in general. Additional topics that could be cov-ered in either addenda or a revised edition include historical or educationalbackground of Masonry and ritual, mentoring/sponsorship, coaching, investi-gation committees/orientation to the craft, and lecturing. Much of this infor-mation can derive from the Lodge System of Masonic Education and Programfor Progress. Appropriate sections can be chosen as needed from these worksas supplements to the handbooks, thus introducing a new generation to thematerial. These complete systems can then be re-implemented themselves.This report reflects the two separate projects for this committee.

Report of the Committee on Masonic Public RelationsThe following Report of the Committee on Masonic Public

Relations was received and entered on the record.To the Most Worshipful Grand Lodge of North Carolina:The Committee on Masonic Public Relations has held three meetings so

far this year. We have continued working on a new informational brochure.We have looked at several different designs and are attempting to get priceson producing the finished product.

We have also begun work on the formation of special interest lodges.These lodges would bring Masons of like interest together to participate intheir interest and fellowship with brother Masons. We are seeking input frombrethren on what type of lodges they would like to see established.

Our final project is in its very early stages. We are looking at some typeof state-wide project that would present Masonry in a positive light. We arehoping we will be able to come up with a project that will give Masonry a pos-itive image and draw media attention.

We solicit suggestions from all brethren who have ideas on how to betterpresent our beloved fraternity to the public in a positive fashion.

North Carolina Committee onMasonic Youth Organizations

The following Report of the Committee on Masonic YouthOrganizations was received and entered on the record.

To the Most Worshipful Grand Lodge of North Carolina,It is my pleasure to update you on some of the activities of our Masonic

youth organizations during the past year.

DeMolay

The DeMolays have chapters meeting in Jacksonville and Raleigh, andchapter structures are still in place in Charlotte and Salisbury. Unfortunately,the chapters in Greensboro and Asheboro have gone inactive. There is, howev-er, interest in starting chapters in Roxboro, Roanoke Rapids, Davie County,and the Sylva area. Efforts are underway to get those chapters up and run-ning. Chuck Rouse, of Hiram Lodge No. 40, continues to serve as executiveofficer of North Carolina DeMolay, and Frank Silber, of James B. Green LodgeNo. 735, continues to act as the deputy executive officer.

In June, Brothers Rouse and Silber attended the International SupremeCouncil meeting in Orlando, Florida, where Brother Silber was invested as thenewest active member of the International Supreme Council. They were alsoable to bring with them two DeMolays from the Raleigh Chapter (AndyCarlson and Hunter Crouch) and one DeMolay from the Jacksonville Chapter(Frankie Fickey), who attended as delegates to the International DeMolayCongress sessions. The DeMolay degrees performed at the Grand Lodge com-munication last year were very well received and led to several inquiries.

Proceedings of the Grand Lodge of North Carolina 71

Page 72: Proceedings - Grand Lodge of NC · Proceedings Of The Grand Lodge Of Ancient, Free and Accepted Masons Of North Carolina 2005

However, there is a real need for more commitment from lodges and bodiesacross the state as the DeMolays continue their efforts to try to rebuildthroughout North Carolina.

Rainbows

The Rainbows are currently the largest of the three Masonic youth organ-izations in North Carolina. The Rainbows have assemblies in Gastonia,Jacksonville, Fayetteville, Albemarle, Winston-Salem, Raleigh, Goldsboro,Bahama, Wilmington, Hillsborough, Spring Lake, and Elizabeth City. TheRainbows are making efforts to start a new assembly in Boone and reactivatethe assembly in Shallotte. Kay Letterman continues to serve as supremeinspector, the adult leader of the International Order of the Rainbows for Girlsin North Carolina. Kay also serves as supreme religion of the SupremeAssembly. In June, Laura Michelle Bower, a Rainbow girl from the OnslowAssembly in Jacksonville, was installed as grand worthy advisor at this year’sGrand Assembly in Raleigh. Emily Brown, from Gastonia Assembly, wasinstalled as grand worthy associate advisor. The Bahama Assembly, led byCathy Dearing, mother advisor, received honors as Assembly of the Year. Aspart of their charity work this year, the Rainbow girls will be gathering stuffedanimals, toys, and games for the Shriner’s Hospital. The Rainbows also willcontinue to support the Etrulia H. Taylor and Estella M. Bell scholarshipfunds in North Carolina. The Rainbows have many activities plannedthroughout the next year. On September 16–18, 2005, the Rainbows across thestate and prospective members will be going to Camp Rainbow for fun activi-ties and a visit to Tweetsie Railroad. On October 28–30, 2005, the Rainbowswill be going to the Jones Masonic Campus. On May 6, 2006, the Rainbowswill be having a dance on the Battleship North Carolina in Wilmington, withRainbow Girls and DeMolays from South Carolina and Georgia (in addition toNorth Carolina) being invited to attend.

Job’s Daughters

The Job’s Daughters have a Bethel in Raleigh. The adult advisors of theBethel are Irene Birbeck, who is serving as Bethel guardian, and AlvisWarren, who is acting as associate Bethel guardian. Jaci Batchelor and AshleyRobinson have been serving as honored queens. Next year, Sandy Dunbar willbe serving as Bethel guardian and Kayla Bitonio is expected to be honoredqueen. The Job’s Daughters continue to work hard supporting the HearingImpaired Kids Endowment fund (HIKE). They were able to raise and donate$200 to this charity this past term.

NC Masonic Foundation Scholarship

Thanks to continued funding from the North Carolina MasonicFoundation, the Scholarship Subcommittee was able to award two scholar-ships in the amount of $1,300 each, to Jaci Batchelor and Lindsey Hall, twoactive members of the Raleigh Job’s Daughters Bethel. Jaci will be attendingEast Carolina University, and Lindsey will be attending Liberty University.Individuals serving on the Scholarship Subcommittee include John Rose, E.John Elmore, Leanne Keith, and Frank and Johanna Silber. The Committeebelieves this scholarship is a wonderful program and sincerely hopes it will be

Page 73: Proceedings - Grand Lodge of NC · Proceedings Of The Grand Lodge Of Ancient, Free and Accepted Masons Of North Carolina 2005

able to continue offering financial aid to deserving members of our Masonicyouth organizations.

Assistance

Our Masonic youth organizations are facing many challenges, and theyneed our support. If there a DeMolay chapter, Rainbow assembly, or Job’sDaughter Bethel in your area, I encourage you to help them find new membersand/or serve as an advisor. If you are not in one of these areas, please consid-er getting your Masonic lodge or other Masonic body to sponsor a new chapter,Bethel or assembly.

Eight brethren were approved for the designation of Certified LecturerEmeritus: George Ervin Bowen, Eugene Glenn Brown, Robert Blythe Bryson,Arleigh Gibson Deyton, Clifford Francis LaMere; Earle Rupert Purser;Thomas Wilson McCree; and Lee Everett Wallin.

The 2005 certified lecturer examinations were held according to the fol-lowing schedule: August 13 in Greenville and Charlotte, August 20 inWilmington and Greensboro, and August 27 in Fayetteville and Asheville. Theexaminations were moved to Saturday this year to be more accommodating toour certified brethren who are employed and find it difficult to get away fromwork. The Board expresses its sincere appreciation to the brethren who donat-ed the use of their facilities for the examinations.

A total of 86 brethren were examined at the six locations, with 27 new cer-tified brethren being added to the rolls. We now have a total of 339 certifiedlecturers and certified instructors, which represents a net loss of 17 from theprevious year. Although we regret this loss, it is not so bad as the past fewyears.

The Board of Custodians now has a certified lecturer lapel pin which willbe given to each certified lecturer as an expression of appreciation for theirloyal support of the ritual of our Grand Lodge. Additional pins will be for saleat a cost of three dollars each.

The booklet “Important Information Concerning the Certified Lecturers”is posted on the Grand Lodge web page and is available to anyone with accessto the Internet.

A web page solely for district deputy grand masters and district deputygrand lecturers is also being maintained. The Board expresses its appreciationto Brother Al Hardy for his valuable assistance in making these resources pos-sible.

The Board of Custodians expresses its appreciation to Grand MasterGraham Pervier for his enthusiastic support of the Board of Custodians andthe certified lecturer program. The Board also expresses its appreciation toGrand Lecturer Robert D. Street for his tireless efforts, and to GrandSecretary Walt Clapp for his continued assistance and unfailing support dur-

Report of the Commission on Subordinate LodgesSpecial Activities

The following Report of the Commission on Subordinate LodgesSpecial Activities was received and entered on the record.

To the Most Worshipful Grand Lodge of North Carolina:The Special Activities Committee is pleased to report that fundraising

activities in the subordinate lodges have been increasingly active during the2004–2005 calendar year. The committee has received requests from sixty-three lodges for various types of fundraising activities this year. The commit-tee is pleased to announce that all requests were approved, and most of thefundraisers were very successful.

The Special Activities Commission was invited to speak on fundraisinglast year during Grand Lodge at the lodge secretaries meeting. This proved tobe an interesting meeting with many questions being asked by the lodge sec-retaries. More lodges are now beginning to rely on the Special ActivitiesCommission for questions and concerns about their projects.

Many lodges continue to have questions on what they can and cannot dopertaining to fundraising. As a result of these questions, the committee hasrevised the fundraiser guidelines from the previous year. For the benefit ofthose lodges that do not have a copy of the guidelines, they are herein printedfor your convenience.

Special Activities Guidelines

A lodge may hold up to two food fundraisers during each calendar year forthe charities. Each fundraisers should be different and not two of the samekind. (such as a barbecue pork in the spring and barbecue chicken in the fall).The Commission should approve all fundraisers plus any additional fundrais-ers a lodge may want to hold. A lodge should try not have more than two foodprojects a year as it may be considered by government officials as interferingwith local businesses.

A fundraiser should be completed in approximately 60 days from start tofinish. You do not want to have an ongoing project, like for instance, a lodgebreakfast the first Saturday of each month for six months or a raffle wheretickets would be sold for four or five months.

A lodge may have a fundraiser for a building fund project. If the lodge isin major need of a new roof, carpet, air conditioning or heating system, hand-icap ramp, etc., a fundraiser may be used to supplement the building fundproject. The building fund project should be a once-a-year effort. A raffle is nota good idea for a building fund project because 90% of the proceeds will go tocharity, and the remaining 10% to be used by the lodge will not be as great.

All printed tickets for any project should indicate where the proceeds aregoing and what charities will benefit from them.

Proceedings of the Grand Lodge of North Carolina 75

Page 76: Proceedings - Grand Lodge of NC · Proceedings Of The Grand Lodge Of Ancient, Free and Accepted Masons Of North Carolina 2005

A fundraiser may NOT be used to supplement the lodge operating expenseaccount. A dues increase should be considered if there is a short fall in operat-ing expenses. This is covered under Section 77-1 of The Code.

A fundraiser may be used for a community project such as placing booksin the town library, scholarship fund, etc.

Ideas for a fundraising project include: food projects, golf tournaments,putt-putt golf tournaments where the families can be included, fishing tourna-ments, pancake breakfasts, charity motorcycle rides, etc. Use your imagina-tion.

Raffles may also be used. Guidelines for raffles are a little stricter. Ninetypercent of all raffles receipts MUST, by state law, go to the charity. Some raf-fles that have been used in the past include: TVs, a vacation plan package (likea trip to Kings Dominion, etc.), gift certificates, motorcycles, cars, campers,utility trailers, riding lawn mowers, power washers, shopping sprees with alocal business, black powder guns or shotguns (A note on firearms – Permitsare not required for black powder but ARE on all others. The winner will needto acquire a firearms permit before taking possession of the firearm.) 50/50drawings should not to be used. Cash cannot be given away as a prize, but giftcertificates can.

There is an application form that should be used for the approval of allfundraising projects and a financial report form to be used after it is complet-ed. Both these should be mailed to the current chairman of the SpecialActivities Committee. The current chairman is:

J. Luigi AmmonsPO Box 6043

Raleigh, NC 27628919-834-8873

[email protected] lodges should continue to use The Code of the Grand Lodge of NC to

assist them with qualifications on fundraising projects. Reg. 43-12 coversfundraising activities. Some lodges are not obtaining permission from theSpecial Activities Commission prior to their project. The Commission hopesthis will improve in the following year with better communications betweenthe subordinate lodges and the Special Activities Commission. TheCommission’s main purpose is to keep lodges in good standing with the taxstructure in North Carolina.

The Special Activities Commission would like to extend its sincerestappreciation to all lodges that have complied with the guidelines of the com-mittee. The Commission also wishes to express its deepest appreciation toGrand Master Graham W. Pervier for his support during this calendar yearand to Grand Secretary Walt Clapp for his valuable assistance to the commit-tee. The committee will continue to strive in replying promptly to all lodgesrequesting permission and information for a fundraising project.

Report of Special Committee on theMasonic Burial Service

The following Report of the Special Committee on the MasonicBurial Service was received and entered on the record.

To the Most Worshipful Grand Lodge of North Carolina:Grand Master Graham W. Pervier created this special committee with the

charge to review the Masonic burial services as they appear in the MasonicCeremonies book and the Bahnson Manual. A second charge was given toreview Chapter 82 of The Code, which is devoted to burials and to seek waysto raise the profile of Freemasonry.

The committee has met quarterly and, for the most part, concentrated onprocedural changes necessitated by recent amendments to The Code. We arealso looking at ways to improve our public image, especially with the clergy. Itis felt that the profile of Freemasonry could be raised if more memorial serv-ices were held in church sanctuaries, or funeral home chapels, instead of at thegrave site, especially during inclement weather. Far too many of the non-Masons who attend the religious service do not go to the burial site, even ingood weather, thus, they never witness a Masonic burial service.

It is the consensus of the Committee that changes made in the burial cer-emony would be minimal.

The grand master recognized both geography and ethnicity in appointinga committee representative of the state of North Carolina. He also recognizedthat the work of this committee might well extend into another Grand Lodgeyear. To that end, he sought and received assurance from his likely successorin office that the work of the committee would go forward, next year, with hisblessing. With that assurance, the committee will continue their work intonext year.

Accordingly, this report is submitted as an interim, not a final report.

report. His complete and final report appears in the 2004 Proceedings.

Tribute to Grand Master Safrit

Leonard Yearby Safrit Jr. will tell you proudly that his family businesshas survived over several generations by honestly telling their customers whatthey can expect, and delivering what they promise. They have also adapted tochange and the needs of the communities they serve. Grand Master Safrit has

Proceedings of the Grand Lodge of North Carolina 77

Page 78: Proceedings - Grand Lodge of NC · Proceedings Of The Grand Lodge Of Ancient, Free and Accepted Masons Of North Carolina 2005

brought those same straightforward principles and promises to the Masons ofNorth Carolina.

A neat lumber yard is one of the marks of the Safrit businesses. It tells usof Grand Master Safrit’s attention to detail and his belief in the image we proj-ect forming the opinion the world develops of us.

More importantly, he reminds us that attending to our image also affectshow we feel about ourselves. A fraternity that strives to look its best to out-siders will find that it feels better about itself and, indeed, actually becomes abetter group from its effort.

During their journey through the Grand Lodge line, Beaufort residentSafrit and Winston-Salemite Graham W. Pervier, who followed him throughthe chairs, often jokingly referred to themselves as the grand master of theeast and grand master of the west. During his term as grand master, though,Safrit showed himself a champion of all Freemasonry, not a single region ofthe Tar Heel State.

Safrit served with integrity and courage, exploring possibilities and terri-tory previously unknown. He stood on the frontier and urged us to join him onhigher ground. We strive still to meet his challenge.

Report of Grand Master Graham W. PervierThe following Report of the Grand Master is the interim report

presented at Annual Communication, and updated through the end ofGrand Master Pervier’s term. It is the Grand Master’s Final Report.

To the Most Worshipful Grand Lodge of North Carolina:It is an extraordinary honor to serve as grand master of this Grand Lodge.

I thank you for trusting me with these responsibilities and for the hospitalityand courtesy which have been extended to me as I have traveled around theOld North State.

Pursuant to the provisions of The Code, I am pleased to submit this reportof my acts as grand master and the general condition of Masonry within thisjurisdiction.

The Condition of Masonry

Above all else, I have tried to communicate to the craft that Masonry inNorth Carolina is healthy, energetic, and on the rise. I have done so in my dis-trict meetings, in The North Carolina Mason, and on any other occasion thatafforded itself. As evidence of this optimistic outlook I have cited: our member-ship trends, the activity in our lodges, and our long and proud history.

We will continue to experience a net decline in total membership for a fewmore years. That is because we are losing so many of the men who joined thefraternity in large numbers in the years right after World War II.

However, we should focus on the number of new Masons that we raiseeach year, not on our losses. Except for those men of the Greatest Generation,our underlying membership trends are healthy. The amount of degree work inour lodges these days is exciting. We just need to continue to let good menknow what we are about. We need to stay in touch with all of our members.Keep them involved with the life and work of our lodges, so that we have fewerNPDs. We also need to be sure that we raise all of the men that we initiate.

Our lodges are active and energetic. For every lodge that may be strug-gling a little with membership or finances, there are three or four lodges thatare doing very well. They have degree work regularly. They have projects intheir communities, and they support our Masonic charities. They work withother lodges in their district. They involve their families in many lodge activ-ities. They do things together just for fun and fellowship. Many lodges havebeen kind enough to put me on their lodge mailing list this year. These lodgenewsletters bring me good news about Masonry in North Carolina every day.

Finally, our proud history reminds us that we have been around for a longtime. We have survived ups and downs in membership. We have enduredattacks by misguided politicians and preachers. Each lodge anniversary eventthat I have attended reminds me of how durable we are. Each service awardthat I have presented is a reaffirmation of how important Freemasonry is toits members. We have no fatal flaw, nor do we need to worry about whether ornot we are “relevant.” Friendship, morality, and brotherly love will always beimportant to men of faith and character.

Necrology

Since our last Annual Communication many of our beloved brothers have

88 Proceedings of the Grand Lodge of North Carolina

Page 89: Proceedings - Grand Lodge of NC · Proceedings Of The Grand Lodge Of Ancient, Free and Accepted Masons Of North Carolina 2005

departed this life for that undiscovered country, from whose bourne no travel-er returns. The Committee on Necrology will conduct a memorial service dur-ing this Annual Communication in memory of these departed Brothers.

DDGM/DDGL Meetings

Last November, we met with the district deputy grand masters and thedistrict deputy grand lecturers to discuss our plans for 2005. These meetingswere held at five different locations. Grand Secretary Walt Clapp and GrandLecturer Bob Street joined me for these meetings. I talked about the positivemessage that I hoped to deliver in 2005, and I received several helpful sugges-tions and ideas. We also discussed Prince Hall recognition. I asked theDDGMs to be diligent about their official visits and particularly asked them toidentify any lodges that might need help with budgeting and financial report-ing.

Please take the time to thank your DDGM and your DDGL. These are notceremonial positions. They are hardworking jobs, and these men are the gluethat holds our Grand Lodge together on a statewide basis. They are oftenrequired to deal with difficult and controversial situations in the lodges. Theorderly work of our Fraternity absolutely depends on them. We are fortunatethat these men are willing to undertake the considerable responsibilities ofthese offices.

District Meetings

We held twenty-five District Meetings across the state this year.Attendance was excellent, and I thank the officers of the lodges, the DDGMs,DDGLs, Grand Lodge officers, past grand masters, members of our variousboards and committees, and all the other Masons who attended these meet-ings.

At these meetings I discussed: (1) membership; (2) Prince Hall recogni-tion, and (3) my optimistic views about the current state of the Fraternity.John Rose gave a brief report about the Masonic and Eastern Home. DougMcConnell or Allen Hughes or Chris Richardson was present to report on theMasonic Home for Children. Grand Lecturer Bob Street attended to encouragethe lodge officers to maintain proficiency in our ritual work.

Thanks again to the lodges who hosted these District Meetings. I knowthat a lot of work goes into being the host lodge.

All spring I watched the host lodge officers scramble to prepare to receivethe grand master. On May 16, the shoe was suddenly on the other foot. TheGrand York Rite officers were making their official visit to Winston-Salem.Since I was in the East as illustrious master of Zabud Council, it was my turnto scramble to receive Masonic dignitaries.

Physical Disabilities

To date, I have approved two waivers of physical disabilities for a numberof petitioners for the degrees in Masonry. In each case, the district deputygrand master of the district in which the petition was received made a person-al investigation of the petitioner and reported to me. I wish to commend eachof them for the prompt and efficient manner in which they handled theseinvestigations.

Dispensations Granted

At the time this report was being prepared, I had granted 20 dispensa-tions. These dispensation had been granted to accomplish the following pur-poses:

Fifteen dispensations were granted to elect officer and fill lodge officesvacated due to death, resignation, or failure to elect in December.

Five dispensations were granted to permit lodges to hold meetings otherthan at the regular meeting place.

Masonic and Eastern Star Home

I commend for your information the Reports of the Administrator of theMasonic and Eastern Star Home, the Report of the Board of Directors of theMasonic and Eastern Star Home, Inc., and the Report of the Committee on theMasonic and Eastern Star Home.

If you have not had the opportunity to visit the Masonic and Eastern StarHome, please try to do so. You will have an appreciation for what we do therethat you just can’t get any other way. We are not running an institution. Weare providing a home for our residents. It is a special place.

MESH is the most charitable retirement community in North Carolina.The care of about 150 of our 250 residents is subsidized in whole or in part.This has caused a financial squeeze that the Board of Directors is carefully

90 Proceedings of the Grand Lodge of North Carolina

Page 91: Proceedings - Grand Lodge of NC · Proceedings Of The Grand Lodge Of Ancient, Free and Accepted Masons Of North Carolina 2005

addressing. Plans are underway to replace the older buildings and to add addi-tional units. Additional income, from new residents who are able to pay fortheir care, will help us to provide for those who need help.

We need to step up on our fraternal support for the Masonic and EasternStar Home. Many of our lodges have very effective fundraisers for our Homes.And many individual Masons are quite generous as well. But on a per capitabasis, our support for our Homes is, quite frankly, pathetic. I don’t mean tofuss at our membership. We need to get the word out about what is needed,and why, and I know the Masons will respond.

Masonic Home for Children at Oxford

I commend for your information the Report of the Administrator of theMasonic Home for Children at Oxford and the Report of the Committee on theMasonic Home for Children at Oxford. These reports will provide informationabout the new board structure, the strategic plan, licensure, accreditation, andplans for the older buildings.

From time to time, members ask why the number of children at Oxford isso much lower than in the past. In fact, this is a trend with similar homes forchildren nationwide. All of the emphasis in our local social services systems inon keeping kids at home, if possible, or in the community as an alternative.Food stamps, Medicaid, and housing assistance help single moms who mightotherwise have to give up custody of their kids. Other children are placed withrelatives or in foster care, both with social services financial assistance. Fewerchildren need short or long-term residential placements.

But, make no mistake. There are still children who need us, and thosethat do need us need us more than ever. Also, many experts believe that therewill be a reversal of the trend and that more residential placements will beneeded in the near future. This is because too many children are placed withrelatives or in foster care situations that are not helpful or appropriate.

Please visit our Home for Children if you have never done so, or if youhaven’t been there recently — you will be overcome with pride.

VA Hospitals

I have been honored to visit the VA Hospitals in Asheville, Durham, andSalisbury during my term. I expect to visit the hospital in Fayetteville laterthis year. Our Masonic Service Association volunteers do a wonderful job ofserving the veterans at these hospitals. They give thousands of hours of serv-ice and often visit veterans who might otherwise have no visitors. Pleasethank them. I was happy to visit Asheville a second time to present Inza Lancea certificate from the Masonic Service Association recognizing her ten years asthe MSA representative there.

Conference of the Grand Masters in North America

The Conference of Grand Masters in North America was held in Calgary,Canada in February of this year. As you know, Freemasonry has no governingstructure above the state or provincial level. This conference provides animportant opportunity for Masonic leaders to meet and share ideas about theproblems and opportunities facing Masonry in our several grand jurisdictions.The informal conversations with other Masonic leaders are often as helpful as

Proceedings of the Grand Lodge of North Carolina 91

Page 92: Proceedings - Grand Lodge of NC · Proceedings Of The Grand Lodge Of Ancient, Free and Accepted Masons Of North Carolina 2005

the Conference sessions. I was privileged to serve on the Conference Planning Committee and so I

traveled to Calgary in both summer (June 2004) and winter (February 2005).For this North Carolinian, summer was nicer by far.

Southeastern Masonic Conference

The Southeastern Masonic Conference was held in Baton Rouge,Louisiana, August 4–5, 2005. The members of the Southeastern Conferenceare North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, Florida, Kentucky, Tennessee,Mississippi, Alabama, Louisiana, and Arkansas. Like the North AmericaConference, this is an opportunity for Masonic leaders to meet and share ideasand we have much in common with these southeastern grand jurisdictions. Igave a presentation titled “We Are Stronger Than We Think” which was basedon my remarks at our District Meetings earlier this year. At both theSoutheastern and North America Conferences, I heard the same optimismabout Freemasonry that we are feeling in North Carolina.

Visitations

I believe it is one of the grand master’s responsibilities to keep the GrandLodge in communication with the rest of the Masonic family. This is accom-plished in part by visiting with our appendant bodies and other grand juris-dictions.

I attended the Oasis Orientation Session in January where PotentateRolla Rogers presented my me with my grand master’s fez. Karen and Iattended the Shrine Bowl football game in Spartanburg last December. TheShrine temples were wonderful hosts and Jack Marler, then the grand masterof South Carolina, helped to look after me. This July we attended the ImperialShrine Session in Baltimore. Oasis, Amran, and Sudan were most gracioushosts. Forty-one US and Canadian grand masters attended Imperial this year.

We attended the Grand York Rite Session in Clemmons in March and theYork Rite Summer Assembly in Maggie Valley in July. The grand master ofNorth Carolina traditionally gives the keynote address at Summer Assembly,and I enjoyed doing that. The Masonic family fellowship at Summer Assemblyis very special.

I expect to attend the Biennial Session of the Scottish Rite in Washington,DC, in October 2005.

I attended the Grand Chapter of the Order of the Eastern Star in June,the Order of Rainbow for Girls, also in June, and the White Shrine ofJerusalem in May.

Karen and I enjoyed the annual communication of the Grand Lodge ofOntario in July. The hospitality and the pageantry were very special. We weresorry to miss the annual communication in South Carolina. We were en routeto Charleston, when a family emergency called us home.

Thanks to the Sojourners in both Jacksonville and Fayetteville for havingus at meetings this year. I am proud to have been made an honorary memberof both of these chapters.

In December, a week after my own installation, I attended the installationof the officers of the Prince Hall Grand Lodge and Grand Chapter. Past GrandMaster Bill Mathis also attended. We were treated with extraordinary cour-

92 Proceedings of the Grand Lodge of North Carolina

Page 93: Proceedings - Grand Lodge of NC · Proceedings Of The Grand Lodge Of Ancient, Free and Accepted Masons Of North Carolina 2005

tesy, and the ceremonies were most impressive. My thanks are extended toGrand Master Fitch.

Anniversaries and Special Events

St. John’s Lodge No. 1 has done a wonderful job of observing their 250thAnniversary with a series of events this year. I joined them in Wilmington lastDecember to dedicate a historic marker and to install their 2005 officers. Wewere back in June for an Anniversary Gala. Robert Morrow, grand secretaryof the United Grand Lodge of England, was the guest speaker. We presentedBrother Morrow with honorary membership in our Grand Lodge. I’m lookingforward to a special Past Masters’ Night at St. John’s in October.

I enjoyed other anniversaries this year with Liberty 34 (200th), Blackmer170 (150th), Spencer 543 (100th), and Esther Chapter 19 OES (100th).

On April 14, we had a special ceremony at Riverside Cemetery inAsheville. A Masonic Burial Service was performed for Zebulon Baird Vance(1830–1897). Vance was a United States Congressman, the Civil WarGovernor of North Carolina, and United States Senator. For reasons notentirely clear, Vance was buried without Masonic honors, although he hadbeen an active Masonic leader. I gave remarks and PGM B. T. Phillips per-formed the ceremony. Thanks to Brother Walter Klein, author of a recent bookabout Vance, who suggested and planned the ceremony.

It was my pleasure to institute Orphan’s Lodge U.D. in May. This speciallodge will be dedicated to the support of the Masonic Home for Children atOxford. An enthusiastic group of Masons have joined this new lodge, whichhopes to receive its charter at this Annual Communication.

On May 1, I attended the graduation ceremonies for this year’s WilkersonCollege class. What a great resource Wilkerson College has become for thisGrand Lodge. Graduates of this program are now in positions of leadership inlodges all over this jurisdiction. Please recommend Wilkerson College to upand coming leaders in your lodge.

Our annual joint legislative reception on June 21 was a great success thisyear. A number of legislators came by to meet and greet with our officers andthe Prince Hall officers.

On the afternoon of St. John’s Day, I joined representatives and friends ofCreasy Proctor 679 to rededicate the Creasy Proctor Gymnasium on theChildren’s Home campus.

I have visited many lodges for special degree work, for service awards,Ladies’ Nights, Past Master’s Nights and other events.

Recommended Legislation

I have no recommendations for specific legislation. I do, however, offer thefollowing general recommendations:

1. We need to develop a coordinated, long-range plan for the financial sup-port of MESH and MHCO, including both annual fundraising andplanned giving.

2. We must give careful attention to the plans for expansion of MESH andthe short-term financial situation at MESH.

3. While I believe that membership development still depends on personalone-on-one relationships, we should monitor the results of “one-day

Proceedings of the Grand Lodge of North Carolina 93

Page 94: Proceedings - Grand Lodge of NC · Proceedings Of The Grand Lodge Of Ancient, Free and Accepted Masons Of North Carolina 2005

classes” and alternative proficiencies in other jurisdictions. We maylearn something helpful.

4. Prince Hall recognition is important. Since we did not do this at thisAnnual Communication, we should try to see what information the craftneeds to be comfortable about recognition and get it to them.

5. We need to be more active and consistent with support for our youthorganizations.

Addendum

On September 30, 2006, I was graciously received at the public session ofthe Prince Hall Grand Lodge held in Winston-Salem. I thank Grand MasterFitch for this courtesy. The Prince Hall leaders were disappointed that ourGrand Lodge had not approved the resolution providing for mutual recogni-tion. However, they are good Masons and patient men, and they believe thatmutual recognition will be concluded in due time. So do I.

I attended the Scottish Rite Biennial Session October 2–5, 2006 inWashington, DC. It was an impressive assembly of Masonic leadership.Deputy Grand Master Gene Jernigan and I were honored to be among theclass receiving the 33rd degree there in Washington. If you have never visitedthe House of the Temple, put this magnificent building on your “must see” list.

The new Cobb Center at the Masonic Home for Children was dedicated inceremonies October 7–8. The generosity of the Cobb family has provided forthe restoration of the Dunn cottage (the “baby cottage”) as a wonderful multi-purpose facility for the Home.

On November, 12 we had a gala dinner celebrating the 95th Anniversaryof the Masonic and Eastern Star Home. Former Governor and Brother JamesG. Martin was our master of ceremonies. A wonderful time was had by all.

I love our ceremony for the consecration of a new lodge building. It was aprivilege to be a part of the dedication of the new building for James K. PolkLodge No. 759 in Pineville on October 8. Grand Secretary Walt Clapp and Iwere driven up to the front door in a vintage Rolls Royce!

Fall is the time for lodge awards nights. I attended awards nights atForest City Lodge No. 381, Guilford Lodge No. 656, East Gate Lodge No. 692,and Mt. Hermon Lodge No. 118. I thank Mt. Hermon Lodge for making me anHonorary Member. I went down to Lebanon Lodge No. 207 in Whiteville topresent the 50-year emblem to my special friend, Roy Lowe.

Past Masters’ Night for St. John’s 1 on October 15 was an elegant conclu-sion to the observance of their 250th Anniversary year.

I had promised to try to visit several lodges in particular during my yearas grand master. During the period covered by this report, I was pleased tomake drop-in visits to Statesville Lodge No. 27, Enterprise Lodge No. 752,Semper Fidelis Lodge No. 680, King Lodge No. 722, and Round Peak LodgeNo. 616. I wish my schedule had allowed me to visit every lodge in this grandjurisdiction!

I had visited the VA hospitals in Asheville, Durham and Salisbury earli-er in my term, and I went to the Fayetteville facility on November 22. Thework that our MSA representatives do at these hospitals is very special andthey are as quick to assist a non-Mason as they are to help a Brother.

I was pleased to confer the Joseph Monfort medal on Brothers CharlesLewis, PGM; Joseph Vale; and Alvin Hardy.

I am a native of Virginia, and so it was a special treat to attend the GrandLodge of Virginia’s Annual Communication, November 6—8, in Richmond, VA.The hospitality was very generous and the work and the ceremonies wereimpressive.

Oasis, Sudan, and Amran were welcoming and helpful to me all year. Inthe fall, I attended the Oasis Ceremonial in Hickory, and also the inauguralOasis North-South All Star Football Game in Charlotte. This game features

players from the independent schools in North and South Carolina.Throughout 2005, I tried to communicate to you my very genuine belief

that our Grand Lodge is healthy and energetic — perhaps more healthy andenergetic than we realize. The number of new petitions is on the rise. Somelodges have had amazing membership gains. Lodges all across the State areon fire with activity, local projects and support of our charities. Our net declinein membership will soon end. This decline was never due to declining interestin the Fraternity, but only to the loss of those men who joined in such hugenumbers in the years after World War II. I remain certain that these earlyyears of the 21st century will be remembered as a period of extraordinaryMasonic renewal.

Karen and I thank you for your courtesies and hospitality throughout theyear. Words cannot communicate what a privilege it was to serve as grandmaster. God bless each of you and our Grand Lodge.

Respectfully submitted,Graham W. PervierGrand Master

Safrit Order No. 5

It has been brought to my attention by the grand secretary that PalmyraLodge No. 147, AF & AM balloted on an application for restoration after sus-pension for NPD. The acting master declared the petitioner rejected withoutcomplying with Regulation 68-3 of The Code.

In such cases, the grand master may authorize a re-ballot at a stated com-munication. Therefore, the grand master, by positive and unquestionable evi-dence, determines the ballot was clearly and grossly illegal and is empoweredto order another ballot in cases of this kind. I hereby ORDER Palmyra LodgeNo. 147 to re-ballot on the above mentioned petition for the degrees at the stat-ed communication to be held on January 4, 2005.

The dispensation authorizing the re-ballot shall contain a proviso that all

members of the lodge shall be given not less than ten days notice of the re-bal-lot by first-class mail under sealed cover and the time and place thereof.

This order shall be read to the lodge at the stated communication to beheld on December 7, 2004, entered in the minutes of that communication anda proper notation made on the margin of the minutes for the stated communi-cation on November 2, 2004, referring to this order and the date it was record-ed in the minutes.

November, 2004 CE; 6004 AL.

The Committee recommended that the order be approved.The delegates approved the order.

Grand Master Pervier OrdersPervier Order No. 1

The grand secretary has informed me that Beaver Dam Lodge No. 276was in the process of voting on an application for affiliation for Brother TFK.While in the process of complying with 68-3.13 of The Code, it was brought tothe worshipful master’s attention that one of the members had left the lodgeroom. The master promptly destroyed the ballot without stating any findings.He further stated that the lodge would conduct another ballot at a subsequentcommunication.

In such cases, the grand master may authorize a re-ballot at a stated com-munication. Therefor, the grand master, by positive and unquestionable evi-dence, determines the ballot was clearly and grossly illegal and is empoweredto order another ballot in cases of this kind. I hereby ORDER Beaver DamLodge No. 276 to re-ballot on the above mentioned application for affiliation atthe stated communication to be held on June 14, 2005.

Given under my hand and seal at Winston-Salem, North Carolina, this24th day of May, 2005 CE; 6005 AL.

The Committee recommended that the order be approved.The delegates approved the order.

Pervier Order No. 2

The grand secretary has forwarded to me the file on Mr. JDD, petitionerin your lodge. From the information supplied, Mr. JDD was elected to receivethe degrees in your lodge on November 23, 2004. Prior to his initiation, a mem-ber of the lodge objected to the degree. The objector did not state the reasonfor his objection. An additional investigation was called for, and a re-ballotwas scheduled. At the stated meeting held on December 28, 2004, no addition-al information was made available. A ballot was conducted, and the petition-er was rejected.

Regulation 68-3.20 provides that “After the Master declares the result ofa secret ballot, no further balloting on that particular petition… shall takeplace…” Former Regulation 73-3, which provided for objection to initiation,was repealed effective January 1, 2002. Objection to initiation can now only besustained for a reason that would disqualify a petitioner.

Regulation 71-5 provides that if a petitioner elected to the degreesbecomes disqualified before initiation, he shall not be initiated. Such a dis-

98 Proceedings of the Grand Lodge of North Carolina

Page 99: Proceedings - Grand Lodge of NC · Proceedings Of The Grand Lodge Of Ancient, Free and Accepted Masons Of North Carolina 2005

qualification might arise if the petitioner were found to have made false state-ments on his petition, or was found by good evidence to be guilty of an offensewhich would be a serious Masonic offense were he a Mason. The Master clear-ly handled the objection prudently in this case in ordering another investiga-tion, and apparently found no basis for such a disqualification.

The ballot conducted on December 28, 2004 is, therefore, NULL andVOID. It is my ORDER that the ballot conducted on November 23, 2004 wascorrect and the petitioner JDD is hereby elected.

Given under my hand and seal at Winston-Salem, North Carolina, this31st day of January, 2005.

The Committee recommended that the order be approved.The delegates approved the order.

Pervier Order No. 3

Based upon information concerning the character of Mr. SAV which hasbeen reported to me by the master of Ocean Lodge No. 405, it is my order thatthis candidate is disqualified under the law of the Grand Lodge and he maynot be initiated. The master may cancel the emergent communication calledfor May 17, 2005

Given under my hand and seal at Winston-Salem, NC this the 13th day ofMay.

The Committee recommended that the order be approved.The delegates approved the order.

Pervier Order No. 4

It has been brought to my attention by the grand secretary’s office thatLinville Lodge No. 489 elected SDH for affiliation on August 11, 2005 withoutwaiting 28 days between receiving the application and balloting.

The ballot taken on August 11, 2005 is clearly illegal under the positivelanguage of Regulation 75-11.1B of The Code, and is, therefore, NULL andVOID.

Since the grand master is empowered to order another ballot in cases ofthis kind, I hereby order Linville Lodge No. 489 to re-ballot on the applicationfor affiliation for SDH at the stated communication to be held on September 8,2005.

This order shall be read to the lodge at the next stated communication,entered on the minutes of that communication, and a proper notation made onthe margin of the minutes for August 11, 2005, referring to this Order and thedate it was recorded in the minutes.

Given under my hand and seal at Winston-Salem, North Carolina, this19TH day of August, 2005.
